Lyrics
Maybe the sun gave me the pow’r
But I could swim Loch Lomond
And be home in half an hour
Maybe the air gave me the drive
For I’m all aglow and alive
Refrain
What a day this has been
What a rare mood I’m in
Why it’s almost like being in love
There’s a smile on my face
For the whole human race
Why it’s almost like being in love
All the music of life seems to be
Like a bell that is ringing for me
And from the way that I feel
When the bell starts to peel
I would swear I was fallin’
I could swear I was fallin’
It’s almost like being in love
